Hello, I wander where the benefit of this solution would be? Why are you not just using a .bat file to run ant in the same manner like you run it on the command line. If you are using ant for your build I suppose, that all the configuration for ANT is done in the build-file, right? (like CLASSPATH, etc.) So the solution seems to be easy. If you would like to do some continuuous integration you can even use tools like cruise control or anthill.
